Tracing Center Programs for General Audiences

We offer a wide variety of programs for general audiences, with or without our Emmy-nominated PBS documentary about slavery and race, Traces of the Trade: A Story from the Deep North.

• Screenings of the film with Q&A or conversations led by one of the filmmakers, a family member from the film, or a trained facilitator
  

• Facilitated dialogues interweaving history, memory, and the politics of race, with attention to emotion, identity, and individual perspectives
  
• Speakers on topics including historical complicity in slavery and contemporary issues of race and privilege, for any occasion, including Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Black History Month and Juneteenth

The Tracing Center also offers programming in the areas of education and public history, as well as programs designed for workplaces and communities of faith.
